  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Husky vs. transponder issues

I raced a harescramble sunday and wasn't scored on one of my laps. The scoring dept. said that 2010 and 2009 250's all had similar issues. Apparently at 1800 rpm the stator puts out the same frequency as the xsponder. He said to chop the throttle so it will read the xsponder and not the bike. Heard of cases of this at GNCC too. Anyone had this issue and found a remedy? I have a 2009 txc 250.
 
Had no issues with the 2009 te 310 as did no one else I know of at the Alligator enduro BTW using the tube type transponders not the credit card like GNCC...You did not specify what type of transponder you use
 
I was at a Virginia Hare Scramble two weeks ago using the tube type transponder. My transponder worked fine during sign up and on the first lap. After the race was over the scoring lady told me my last two laps my transponder did not work. I did not go over and try it again but I will have to keep a eye on this. Never thought it might have something to do with the bike.
 
Seen piles of huskys from the Taskys / JR husky crew use them just fine. I would double check that. Why would it work all but the last lap?
 
Mine worked last year with the transponder, but we had other issues with transponders and went to barcodes on the helmets. :excuseme: At a few races I remember guys having to go thru twice to get it to respond. :banghead:
 
Beats me, and I think it had more to do with my transponder than the bike. The lady came up yelling at me when the race was over and said it did not work the last two laps. Asked if it was touching metal which it was not. I was too tired to argue or even go see if it would work there again.
 
Yes they did and sorry to start a scare. I really think it was my transponder causing it as I got it used from a National Enduro last year. That or I cheated.
 
I still haven't heard the word from scoring people what exactly happened but seems that I was missed on lap 2 and 4 but not lap 1,3,5
Hope they figure it out cause thats alot of husky bucks lost:confused:.
If it is a bike issue I will post anything that I find out that is proven.
My tube type transponder was also working at start/test area.
 
Tube type won't work on the new TXC 250 at a hi RPM. Been having trouble with it at every race. You have to go past the pick up at " low rpm " and cross your fingers. Doesn't matter where you mount it the electrical system on the Husky will override it, unless you chop the throttle. At this weeks National Enduro I lost one pickup, on a going in check because I was on the gas, but picked up all my exit checks because I coasted through. Maby the factory has an answer, know one here does. BUMMER.
 
Transponder

Seem like a universal problem. My son in law races a 450 honda quad and has had the same problem. They said the transpondereciver pick up interferance from the cdi box.
